An unusual inequality condition

Algebra Level 4

Consider all triples of non-zero real numbers that satisfy

1 a + 1 b + 1 c 3 \left| \frac { 1 }{ a } \right| +\left| \frac { 1 }{ b } \right| +\left| \frac { 1 }{ c } \right| \le 3

What is the minimum value of

( a 2 + 4 ( b 2 + c 2 ) ) ( b 2 + 4 ( a 2 + c 2 ) ) ( c 2 + 4 ( a 2 + b 2 ) ) ? {(a^2+4(b^2+c^2))(b^2+4(a^2+c^2))(c^2+4(a^2+b^2)) ?}


The answer is 729.
